Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

221 The Avatar's Breakthrough

Lin Wu wondered what he should ask of the beasts, but then thought that it would be better to wait and watch them. He still didn't know what these changes would affect them like and he needed to know that before making decisions.

He went back to his flying practice and was getting better with every try. Lin Wu also realized that his passive absorption of spirit Qi was much higher than before. But this passive absorption only applied to his own body and not the system's storage of spirit Qi.

If it could work like that he would have had a continuously growing source of spirit Qi. There were a few tasks he needed to do in addition to this, like expanding the range of his spirit sense. He put that next on the list after getting the hang of flying.

"Hmm… though I wonder if my digging speed is still faster than flying or not." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

While he could still fly, Lin Wu had a lot of difficulties due to his immense weight. Even in a cultivation world, he knew there wouldn't be that many beasts that could reach his weight unless they were very high in cultivation base.

At least most common beasts wouldn't be at that level.

While Lin Wu was busy with his tasks, the avatar was calmly lying near Shirong and cultivating on its own. With the speed at which he was able to cultivate, Lin Wu had estimated that he would have accumulated enough spirit Qi to upgrade to the next stage in about five more days.

~Ding~

AVATAR CULTIVATION: Mid Stage of the Core Condensation Realm.

-Spirit Qi required to upgrade = [6250/12000] units (liquid spirit qi)

Shirong too was cultivating calmly, but he was not increasing his spirit Qi. Rather, he was focused on his own body and was letting it reach the optimum level. Lin Wu could sense the faint increase in vital energy coming from his body as well.

Shirong had started using the cultivation technique he used previously to convert his spirit Qi into vital energy again. The system was still in the process of analyzing it and was nearly done. Lin Wu reckoned that once it was done, he may be able to freely switch between vital essence and Spirit Qi when needed.

The complete analysis of the technique would also mean that the analysis of other techniques would be sped up. The system would better its understanding and the compatibility of Lin Wu with human oriented techniques would increase as well.

Five days passed in the blink of an eye and Lin Wu's avatar had gained enough spirit Qi to break through to the late stage of the core condensation realm. He took a look at Shirong and found him to be in a much better condition than before.

His body was about halfway to his previous build, and even his hair had started growing back. Small black hair could be seen all over his head, but his eyebrows were still not here, and neither was his beard.

Previously Lin Wu had been apprehensive about having a breakthrough when he was near Shirong, but now that he had an avatar and was going through this for the second time, he knew he would able to handle it better.

Not to mention even the system had improved its masking methods and guarantee that there would be no problem with it.

"Alright system, start the cultivation base upgrade for the avatar." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

Lin Wu's avatar showed no change after its breakthrough and it was as if nothing had happened at all. Lin Wu took a look at Shirong and found him to be completely oblivious to it.

"Looks like the new masking feature is working really good." Lin Wu praised.

He looked at the time and saw that there were nine days left till the day of Shirong's heavenly tribulation. Lin Wu wanted to be fully ready for it as he didn't know what kind of effect a tribulation would have if there was a second person or rather creature with the person undergoing it.

From the cultivation novels, he had read in his previous life, he knew that additional punishment could be given and the lightning would hit those who were trying to interfere with the tribulation as well.

But if he really was going to be hit with a tribulation, Lin Wu had some slightly different plans. He was planning to train his radiation manipulation skill to increase his proficiency. He now understood the true potential of the skill and knew it could be one of the strongest weapons in his arsenal.

He just needed to fully grasp its use. After the grade upgrades, its proficiency had fallen and it had become a bit difficult for him to use it, thus he knew it was something he needed to as soon as possible. Thankfully, the skills were shared between both the bodies and if the avatar increased his skill, the main body would subsequently do it too.

Lin Wu returned back to his main body and checked his progress with the flying. He had gotten better at it and could now control his body without crashing into anything, which was the best result he could hope to achieve for now.

What he wanted to do now was to go and see how fast could he really fly. Thus he lifted the barrier of the tomb and took flight straight from the top of the hill.

~Swoop~

He dived down at a diagonal angle and moved like a missile. He had already shrunk his body to the salesman form he could, otherwise the large form would have broken a lot of trees and rocks on the way down.

"WOO!HOO!" Lin Wu shouted in joy as he soared through the air.
